PAGE B4, KEIZERTIMES, AUGUST 3, 2018 Peach of a Century on Sunday, Aug. 26 WINNING, continued from Page B1 Bond led off with a single to right on a grounder. Nico Giarratano homered to right for the last two runs of the game. Fortunato was the winning pitcher with a 4-1 record. Santos, the losing pitcher, went to 4-3. Wednesday, July 25 Eugene 4, Volcanoes 1 Was it Eugene’s clutch pitching or Salem-Keizer’s lack of clutch hitting? It depends on who’s on which side, but the Volcanoes outhit the Emeralds 10-6 in this middle game of a road series. The Volcanoes took a brief lead in the third inning when a triple by Aaron Bond scored Kyle McPherson, who had singled. Then Eugene’s pitch- ers scattered the rest of the Volcanoes’ hits, and Emer- ald hitters scored once in the fourth, twice in the sixth, and once in the seventh. Keaton Winn, the fi rst of four Salem-Keizer reliev- ers, was the losing pitcher at 0-1. Jeffrey Passantino was the winning pitcher in relief, and Mitch Stophel had his fi rst save. Thursday, July 26 Eugene 3, Volcanoes 2 The Volcanoes tied the score in the seventh inning as David Villar homered with Kyle McPherson on base, breaking up a no-hitter. Eugene, however, added a run in the bottom of the sev- enth, and Salem-Keizer failed to catch up. The loss gave the Emeralds a series win, two games to one. Starter Gregory Santos went 4-1/3 innings for the Volcanoes and gave up two runs, only one earned. JJ Santa Cruz pitched the next 1-2/3 innings, allowing no runs, and Mack Meyer, the last pitcher, took the loss for a 2-3 record. Stephen Ridings was the winning pitcher in relief at 1-1, and Yan De La Cruz got his fi rst save. Friday, July 27 Volcanoes 14, Everett 1 Salem-Keizer opened this fi ve-game series by taking an early lead and tying up Ever- ett the rest of the way before a crowd of 2,958. The Aqua Sox scored their run in the fi rst inning when Cal Raleigh singled home Connor Hoover, who had doubled. The Volcanoes an- swered with a run in the fi rst as Joey Bart’s sacrifi ce fl y drove in Kyle McPherson. KEIZERTIMES/Delek Wiley Mikey Edie, outfi eldel fol the Salem-Keizel Volcanoes, is hitting .356 this season.

Everett starter Cody Brown was the loser at 0-1. Saturday, July 28 Everett 12, Volcanoes 5 It wasn’t quite as lopsided as the night before, but Everett turned things around.

Sunday, July 29 Volcanoes 9, Everett 7 Salem-Keizer recaptured the series lead in this hard- fought game. Although the Volcanoes led all the way, Everett did not make it easy. After the home team scored once in the fi rst inning, once in the second, and four times in the fourth, the AquaSox came close in the fi fth when Connor Kopach hit a grand slam. The Volcanoes outhit their visitors 16-10, with one of their hits a home run by Aar- on Bond with Wander Franco on base. In the eighth, Rob- inson Medrano broke a slump with a triple that drove in Kyle McPherson and Diego Rincones. Starter Norwith Gudino was the winning pitcher with a 4-4 record.
